Netflix has announced that Oscar-nominated actor Laurence Fishburne is joining the cast of The Witcher for its upcoming fourth season.
Fishburne, who famously played Orpheus in The Matrix and earned an Academy Award nomination for What’s Love Got to do With It, will play Regis. This character was introduced in the book Baptism of Fire, and he’s described as a “world-wide barber-surgeon with a mysterious past.” He will team up with Geralt, who will be played by Liam Hemsworth after Henry Cavill moved on from the role.
